Help Alper Recover

Donation protected
Alper is an amazing, fun loving 14-year-old kid who loves soccer, hockey and riding his bike and skateboard with his friends.  Just two weeks after graduating 8th grade at Candlewood Middle School, Alper’s life was changed in an instant. On the 4th of July, at the end of a long day of fun and celebration with family and friends, Alper was struck directly in the face by a mortar-style firework. He was rushed to the ER at Stony Brook, where he remains in the ICU. Alper sustained numerous injuries, fractures and burns and we pray and hope for healing over the next few months as Alper will undergo surgeries and treatment. 

With all of this going on for Alper and his family, we are hoping to help relieve some of the financial burden for the family so they can focus on helping Alper recover, both physically and mentally. 

Any donation will be a huge help and deeply appreciated. Whether or not you are able to help financially, please share with your friends and keep Alper and his family in your thoughts and prayers. They will be forever grateful for your support. 

Alper's mother, Esma, is added as the beneficiary of this fundraiser and handling the withdrawals.
